Thanks for the help all, so the only real mystery is the two switches the third pic on the right side of the seat (Right rear fender) any thoughts?

Im also wondering if it has a steering issue, didn't notice it when I drove it around in the sellers lot but if I leave the wheel alone and go straight it sometimes just starts turning right. Could I have a bad ram? Not sure how these steer, haven't looked at it yet but feels like there is no direct link from the steering wheel to the wheels.

Thanks ~ Phil

Not sure I can help on either issue. Is it possible the switches are for a work light(s)? Sometimes there's a "cruise control" for the hydro, but that's usually on the dash.

It's not uncommon for a tractor to drift some. Have you checked the air pressure in all the tires?

Red is rabbit- turtle speed switch. Green is cruise control

I haven't checked the tire pressure but none appear slack and when I say drift I don't mean the tractor drifts, I mean the steering drifts, IE if I did not correct the wheels keep turning more and more to that side it would eventually end up doing a tight circle....

On mine when you initially start the tractor it will be in the turtle mode. You have to manually "rock" the switch to change to the rabbit mode.

Thanks, that would make sense why it didn't go very fast.

Thank You ~ Phil

And there should be a mechanical range selector on your LH side. So - two mechanical ranges x two electronic ranges = 4 ranges.

And you can also likely switch ranges with two buttons on your loader joystick (if so equipped).

Yes I have an FEL with a joystick and it does have buttons on it, I was assuming that was for another hydro control, so those are electronic speed control too, interesting.

So is it OK to change speeds with the electronic switch while moving? And yes I am aware of the mechanical speed control lever.

Thanks ~ Phil
